Scope note: Proteína de los receptores nucleares que pertenece a una familia de reguladores transcripcionales de proteínas reguladoras que responden a ligandos, familia que incluye los receptores de hormonas esteroideas. Además de un dominio de unión a ligandos C-terminales, estos receptores nucleares contienen un dominio con dedos de zinc N-terminal altamente conservado que media la unión de elementos que responden a ligandos.

Scope note: A nuclear receptor protein which belongs to a family of transcription regulators of ligand-responsive regulatory proteins which include steroid hormone receptors. In addition to a C-terminal ligand-binding domain, these nuclear receptors contain a highly-conserved N-terminal zinc-finger domain that mediates binding ligand-responsive elements.
